Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great questions, bad software
I agree with other reviewers, the questions are very nice, good explanations and fair difficulty level. The software makes you repeat questions lots of times, you can't review the ones you got right on test mode, so if you were lucky with your answer, you will never know why. My software also failed a couple of times making me quit in the middle of test review.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - FANTASTIC BOOK
I did fabulous on Step I- yet I was a mediocre student in the first two years. Here's why. During the first two years, I tried to read a lot of textbooks and not those silly notes handed out by the instructors... because they were poorly presented and often contained weak, 1:1 relationships. Reading textbooks really exposed me to a lot of highly varied material, and consequently, I was exposed to more knowledge than the other students. But when Step I came around, I decided not to do the Kaplan ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - What a waste of money... Do not buy!!!!!
First of all let me just say that the question you get on the book are repeated to you on the cd-rom, so for those of you thinking, like I did, that you're getting a total of 1400 questions, YOU'RE NOT. Second of all, the cd-rom doesn't have a save option so you'll be repeting questions each time you use it and you'll never do them all because of that. Third, the questions are either way to easy or impresively hard to find in your regular study reviews. And finally,to DAVE BROWN in Tempe AZ, the guy ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Gold Standard for Step 1
Everyone already knows that Goljan is the gold standard for path when it comes to step 1. This book is right on the money, every single path question I got on step 1 was right from this book. Easy to read and the cd is a good review for questions, but use only after you finish the Kaplan Q-bank.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great Q's, but fix the CD...
The questions in this material are excellent, and better than Kaplan's Qbank. The problem with the material is that the CD has too many problems, as it was designed quite unthoughtfully. After purchasing the cd and book, the chances of going through all 1400 Qs is an impossibility without redoing other questions again and again. It is an inefficient way to study, and big set back to the materials. I highly recommend buying this material but they really need to fix the CD.
